<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p class="p1"><span class="normal">I've been piercing for a long time now--since the 1980s. It has taken a while longer for mainstream society to catch up with my interest, but piercing is now pretty widespread, and has been quite popular since the mid 1990s. There’s certainly a whole lot of it going on. According to information from jewelry supply companies, demand is <em>enormous</em>.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="normal"><img src="/sites/all/files/images/angel/Clitoris_Accidental.jpg" alt="Accidental Clitoris Piercing" title="Accidental Clitoris Piercing" width="339" height="400" style="float: left;" />Note that just because someone has been piercing for a long time, that does not automatically mean they’re doing a good job. (And in many cases, piercers do overstate their experience and time spent in the industry.) Especially when it comes to genital piercings, many so-called “professionals” have little or no training. And it definitely shows in&nbsp;their work.</p>
<p class="normal">So, I would have hoped that the overall level of competency of piercers would be elevated by now. My expectation would be that most people were getting properly placed piercings with high quality jewelry of the proper style and fit.&nbsp;</p>

<!-- google_ad_section_start -->
<p>I received a message from a woman who was worried about getting a genital piercing from an inexperienced piercer:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hi Elayne.</p>
<p>I went to my piercer about getting a hch in addition to my vch. Unfortunately, I can't due to a vessel, but she said that she could do a triangle. I'm a little Concerned because I'm fairly small down there (she had to modify my vch because of it) and she's never done one before. She knows how and showed me where it would be placed and took her time showing and explaining how it would be done. Everything seemed about right with how you explained it, but once again she's never done it. I trust her, but I know the piercer should be experienced.. But how would she get experience if she doesn't get te chance? I just need your advice on this, is there anything I need to make sure of? The only thing is that we decided to use a ring instead of the curved barbell (because I absolutely abhor the standard jewelry for the triangle, it just looks like a septum piercing for my vagina... Which isn't what I'm going for)</p>
</blockquote>
<p>My response:</p>
<p>Hi.</p>
<p>If it were my vulva, especially if I were small built (meaning passing a needle through the wrong part could do debilitating damage), I most definitely would NOT let her do it. Even experienced piercers learn by networking and sharing with other piercers. She should have a colleague who is experienced at triangle piercings walk her through it on a few IDEAL clients first--not someone who is small built. That would be something only for a true expert to do, not a first-timer!</p>

<p>I performed a consultation for a woman who wanted to know if her anatomy was suitable for Horizontal Clitoral Hood (HCH) and Triangle Piercings.</p>
<blockquote><p>Hi Elayne.</p>
<p>I have a vertical clit hood piercing and I love it sooo much I want more! I have a good piercer that I really love but he's sooo far away. Thank you sooo much for doing consultations online! I really, really want to get a triangle. Or maybe a horizontal? I hope my pictures are good enough. I'm glad I'll have a better idea of what I can get before I go all the way out to see my piercer.</p>
<p>Thanks!!!&nbsp;</p>

<p>My response:</p>
<p>Hi.</p>
<p>You don't really appear to have any space for an HCH piercing above your VCH, which is where it would normally go, so I don't think you're a candidate for that particular piercing. And, by the way, your VCH appears to be properly placed and the jewelry is a suitable fit.</p>

<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I received a message from a woman who wondered if her new triangle piercing was making it harder for her to achieve orgasm:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hi Elayne! I hope you're well. I have an orgasm question and I don't know who to ask. I had my VCH done at the end of January. Then I had the triangle done a month ago. It seems since then I have had a harder time coming to orgasm. I haven't lost sensation because I feel like I am so close the entire time I masturbate. It feels great. Sometimes I just can't get over that ledge to the big O. For example I couldn't tonight and was frustrating because I was right there. But I had done it the previous 3 nights within 10-30 mins. Since its only been a month on the triangle do you think there is still some swelling and healing going on? I don't know anyone else who has one to ask. Any insight you can give I would be so so grateful. Thank you!!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>My response:</p>
<p>Thanks for your message. Your piercing is still quite new and still in the healing stages. During that time, you can expect the healing process to be ongoing, and until the piercing is fully healed and settled, you won't really know how it will ultimately "perform" for you.</p>
<p>Did you go to one of the piercers on my referrals list, which is on this page of my website: <a href="http://piercingbible.com/piercer-referrals" target="_blank" title="http://piercingbible.com/piercer-referrals">http://piercingbible.com/piercer-referrals</a> ?</p>
<p>If not, you may want to have me do a consultation to determine if your piercing is placed properly for your anatomy and for me to see if you're wearing appropriate jewelry.</p>

<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>Hi Ms. Angel,</p>
<blockquote><p>Hope you are well. You did my triangle piercing last year in Philly and I'd like to remove it for a few hours. Do you think it would be a problem to put it back in? BTW, I love it!&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>My reply:</p>
<p>Hi.</p>
<p>There's a chance if you remove it you won't be able to reinsert it. On some women, this can happen instantaneously with triangle piercings, because of the way I manipulate the clitoral shaft to rest in front of the jewelry. There's a possibility it could slip back and block the channel even if the piercing is well established. I've had some very distressed clients who found out the hard way that it just couldn't &nbsp;be reinserted, even after the briefest removal.</p>
<p>Since you love it, maybe you can avoid taking it out?&nbsp;</p>
<p>Or, at the very least, I'd strongly suggest you get an <a href="http://www.bodycircle.com/merchant.ihtml?pid=60&amp;lastcatid=12&amp;step=4" target="_blank" title="Insertion Tapers for Body Jewelry insertion">insertion taper</a> before you do so. That can help you to reinsert it with less difficulty or trauma. You can get them here:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bodycircle.com/merchant.ihtml?pid=60&amp;lastcatid=12&amp;step=4" title="http://www.bodycircle.com">http://www.bodycircle.com</a>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I'd suggest the one for threaded jewelry in the 12 gauge (which is the most common size I use and should be what you're wearing unless we discussed some other size, or you have stretched up since I pierced you).</p>
<p>Information that will be very helpful to you is located in Chapter 17 of my book, The Piercing Bible. Here's a brief excerpt that should prove useful if you decide to do any jewelry changes (or try out brief removal):</p>

<p>My reply:</p>
<p>Hi J.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In these images, it appears that she is a good candidate for a VCH piercing.</p>
<p>One concern I have about her getting an HCH or triangle relates to a visible vessel that could conceivably be in the pathway of a piercing. See the attached image I marked with an arrow to point out the area of my concern.</p>

<blockquote><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Elayne! I LOVE this website! After months &amp; months of reading about different genital piercings, no other place has given me such detailed information. From what I have been reading, you know EVERYTHING about genital piercings &amp; I wanted to wait until you came to Detroit to get a piercing but In July I just couldn't wait any longer and went to see a piercer. I live in Shelby Township, MI &amp; I was so excited to see that you referred <a href="http://ladyluckink.com/home.html" target="_blank" title="Tiffany Diamond at Lady Luck Tattoo">Tiffany Diamond from Lady Luck</a> located in Waterford, MI. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">I went to see Tiffany just to ask about the triangle piercing and maybe gain a little more knowledge, &amp; ended up getting the piercing that same day! Tiffany was very professional and made me feel extremely comfortable. I definately would recommend her to somebody interested in getting a genital piercing. The piercing did not hurt as bad as I thought it would..... The anticipation building up was worse than the actual piercing itself lol Thank you so much!</span></p>
